Lyrics

[Verse 1] Lately when I call You're never, never home High as a mountain Stand my jealousy bone There was a time Without a doubt I was a star Now even when I'm in your arms You're so close but yet so far [Chorus] I'm afraid, I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man, baby (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) [Verse 2] Although you haven't said You won't see me again Clouds are too low, ha Not to be rain There's one little grey cloud That spells out my name So I'm getting ready For the downpour of pain [Chorus] I'm afraid, I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man, baby (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) [Verse 3] Lately you complain Of the little things I do Don't say funny little things That used to satisfy you Those [?] little cards I pushed beneath your door They don't, no, make you laugh You don't like them anymore [Chorus] I'm afraid, I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man, woo (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) I'm so afraid I've become the forgotten man, baby (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) [Verse 4] I can't place my finger on it It's not just the words you say I feel like a broom you push around each day, baby But don't you get it over If you're through, close the door Don't leave me half open I've got to know for sure [Chorus] I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) Oh, I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man, baby (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) I can't place my finger on it (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) Although you said we are through, baby, you won't see me, woo (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) I'm afraid I've become the, I've become the forgotten man (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man) I'm so afraid I've become the forgotten man (I'm afraid I've become the forgotten man)
